Vampires Among Us: The Children Of The Night
Vampires Among Us The Children Of The Night Author:Gregory Branson-Trent Author Gregory Branson-Trent's latest release takes on the world of Vampires. With a wide range of information contained within 258 pages 8.25x11 format, Vampires Among Us: The Children of The Night, presents an indispensable guide to entering the world of Vampires through history and in movies and books. Imagine a world in which it's possi... more »ble for the dead to return to life to feed on the living. In that world, soon after burying a loved one who died mysteriously, you must watch as other members of your family begin growing weaker, as if life itself is slowly being drained out of them. One by one, they too begin to die. Finally, when you yourself begin losing your strength, you are forced to face the horrible truth, that your dead loved one may be a vampire. You go the grave and exhume the body to look for the telltale signs and discover it has hardly decayed, its hair and finger nails have continued to grow, its stomach is swollen, and, the most telling sign of all, a stain of blood surrounds the corpse's mouth. Imagine, on the other hand, that, you have grown too weak to hunt down the unholy creature responsible for your illness. In fact, you're so ill, you black out. When you finally come to, you're cold and in utter darkness. Soon you realize you've been buried alive. You begin kicking and screaming until exhaustion overcomes you. Then, just as you're about to gasp your last breath, the top of your coffin breaks open and, to your relief, you see that your family and neighbors have arrived to rescue you in the nick of time. Then, just as you attempt to stand, one of your rescuers shoves a wooded stake through your heart, and once again your world falls into blackness, this time forever. Today these chilling accounts seem possible only in the dark imaginations of horror novelists like Ann Rice and Stephen King. The imaginary world I just described makes for frighteningly good entertainment but nobody in their right mind would consider it real. Or would they? I submit to you that until about a hundred and fifty years ago, the world I've just described was the reality for most people. Return to the world of the undead as you read through this book. Learn the history of the Vampire and learn where they came from. Look behind the glamour Hollywood had cast on this dark world. Experience what their world would have been like. Return to the world of the Vampire, and the Children Of The Night.« less
